The top of the wiki says "Who are you?" with a link to iwascharlottebronte.com, so I tweeted back a response to the "who are you?" question as Charlotte Bronte. I dunno if it's right, but it's worth a shot.
Nicely done actually.

To confirm: Yes, it is Virginia Woolf.
The poem appears to be unique, though; I can't find anything like it online.

The wiki poem wrote:
The greatest writers of England...Have all listened to the same sound ...
Now I will let you go
To ponder leaden circles in the air
This part refers to Virginia Woolf's description of the chimes from Big Ben in Mrs. Dalloway so reckon Virginia is still in focus
Quote:
...But these "leaden circles" dissolving on the air, as Woolf describes the chimes, are also restricting . LINK

I don't know if we should consider "England" since there is nothing wrong with the E being in caps.

Considering it's the only vowel, that might make things difficult.

Ok I don't know if this is correct or not but going by those caps that stand out:
Hours
tooLLs
Magicians
Fools
wordS
HLLMFS
and put it through a cryptogram solver I got
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

if that means anything.

Maybe we're looking for a two word phrase?

Other pattern words that fit are, accept, arrive, attend, and office.

Yaha,ravanjedi, believe so and asked Lori to just try "Big Ben" so **fingers crossed** cuz that's all I've thought of.
